Removing the Just

We are just friends. That is the answer I give. We just really good friends. When nosey people ask, Are you two dating? We are just friends. Really good friends. You two would make a great couple. You should go out. We are just friends. Really good friends. No one will accept it. We are just friends! Really good friends. No one wants to believe it. We are just friends. No romance there. Just really good friends. Everyone wants us to get together. Especially me, but no. We are just friends. Really good friends. Are you dating him? I wish. But, we are just friends. Really good friends. Everyone would be happy if we got together. I would. But would you? You see me as your friend. Or do you? But even so would we want to jeopardize that friendship? Would we want to risk it? Could we loose our “just”? And could our friendship survive if we failed? And are you even interested in trying? I don’t know about you. But I say lets loose our just. It is probably just a dream for me; won’t happen. I am ready when you are. I’ll be waiting. We are just friends. Really good friends. And I am sick of it.
